| | | | | MOTORBOOKS BLOG | You can ride a dirt bike without exerting yourself very much if you ride it sitting down and cruise around. But that's not what they were designed for. Your bike's capabilities, and your riding skills, are limited if you only ride sitting down. When you learn how to ride standing up correctly you can get the most performance out of your dirt bike. That is why taking a MotoVentures Dirt First motorcycle rider training course is so valuable. After training with us you'll be able to ride more places and do more things with your bike AND you will be a safer rider too. The problem with riding standing up is that it is physically demanding and will wear you out quickly if you don't do it correctly. That is why we teach two riding positions; the attack position and the energy conserving position. The key to maintaining your strength when riding is to ride in the attack position as needed and then ride in the energy conserving position the rest of the time. |
| | | Dear ASD,
There's nothing like a Ferrari to get a guys' motors running. I know seeing one of those sleek, low machines on the street sends me into an "if I won the lottery" dream. A Ferrari would be my weekend car, perfect for road trips on country roads.

 That's why The Road Ferraris caught my eye when it came across my desk a couple of weeks ago.
This meticulously researched and generously illustrated reference book will delight all admirers of the 'Prancing Horse' marque. It provides a comprehensive record of all Ferraris built for the road, production and prototypes from the Tipo 166 Inter of 1948 to the latest Tipo 612 Scaglietti and its contemporaries.
During that time there have been approximately 80 different touring Ferrari models and this book provides unmatched detail on them all. Where necessary, it investigates the sometimes blurred distinction between pure touring models and competition models of the same car.
It's a great resource for anyone lucky enough to own a Ferrari ... or anyone who, like me, just dreams about it. |
